Hacking means gaining access to a (computer system) for example via malware or zero day exploits.
By intelligence agencies
The difficulty of proving (or even of detecting) hacking by intelligence agencies has given them a more or less free hand in their hacking. Recently, however, they have sought to consolidate this de facto ability by claiming the legal right. The 2016 Investigatory Powers Act awarded GCHQ the legal right to hack anyone it chose to.[1]
